Speaking to the survivors of fallen U.S. military service members today at the 18th annual TAPS National Military Survivor Seminar and Good Grief Camp in Arlington, Va., Joe Biden opened up about the intense grief and anger he experienced after after his wife and daughter were killed in a car accident almost 40 years ago.

Personally, I thought it was very brave and touching of him to try to help those who are grieving by opening up and sharing his own grief with them a little bit (turn up the volume and lean in close to your speakers – I can’t find a louder copy of this video anywhere):
